General description

The Millistak+® depth filter media is offered in a scalable, disposable format providing greater flexibility because of its unique modular design. The Millistak+® MCE5023CL3 comes in a μPOD format featuring a 6.6 cm (H) x 8.9 cm (L) and a filtration area of 0.0023 m2.

This CE50 media series delivers optimal performance through a gradient density matri, ideal for primary (coarse) clarification applications. Millistak+® Pod filters are available in three distinct series of media grades in order to meet your specific needs - DE, CE and HC.

The Millistak+® Pod system is ideal for a wide variety of primary and secondary clarification applications, including cell cultures, yeast and E. coli lysates post centrifuge, E. coli refolds, media, vaccines, plasma proteins and sera.

Easy to Use

With the compact, modular design of our Millistak+® new Pod system, you can increase productivity and shorten cycle times.

Installation and setup of the Pod system is simple and straightforward. The unique design of the disposable adapters and disposable manifolds makes it easy to connect the Pod filters to rest of the unit operations in the process. The self-contained and disposable nature of the system protects operators from exposure to biohazards and eliminates maintenance as well as cleaning validation requirements.

A relatively templated manufacturing process can be used to produce live vector vaccines. Challenges exist, however, and include yield loss due to sterile filtration, vector aggregation and scaling adherent cultures. Learn all about this core platform technology and how expertise—empowered by collaboration— can overcome manufacturing challenges.

Manufacturing viral vaccines is complex and there is no templated approach. Each process must be tailored to the shape, size, nature, physico-chemical behavior, stability, and host specificity of the virus.
